IXGH32N60BD1

Overview

The IXGH32N60BD1 is a HiPerFAST IGBT with an integrated antiparallel diode, manufactured by IXYS. It utilizes the HDMOSTM process to combine a high-frequency IGBT and a FRED in a single package. The device features a collector-emitter voltage of 600V and a continuous collector current of 32A. It is housed in a TO-247AD through-hole package designed for easy mounting with a single screw. Key electrical characteristics include a saturation voltage of 1.8V at 32A and a typical fall time of 150ns.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a high-frequency IGBT and an antiparallel FRED diode within one component
• Utilizes HiPerFAST HDMOSTM technology for reduced switching losses
• Features a standard TO-247AD package allowing simple single-screw mounting

Applications

• Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS)
• Switched-mode and resonant-mode power supplies
• AC motor speed control systems
• DC servo and robot drives
• DC choppers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix BD1 against official datasheets to confirm pinout and thermal characteristics. Check manufacturer archives for obsolescence status as older HiPerFAST variants may be discontinued. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the TO-247AD package before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high current handling and low switching losses in a compact form factor. The integrated diode eliminates the need for external freewheeling components, saving board space. Verify that the 600V rating and 32A current capacity meet the specific circuit requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IXYS HiPerFAST family, which focuses on high-efficiency power switching. The BD1 suffix typically denotes a specific variant within the broader IXGH32N60 series, often indicating the inclusion of the antiparallel diode and specific thermal or electrical tolerances defined by the manufacturer.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the IXGH32N60B and IXGH32N60BU1 from IXYS. Cross-manufacturer alternatives should match the 600V/32A rating and TO-247AD package. Verify switching times and saturation voltages to ensure equivalent performance in high-frequency applications.
